Meet Henrianna…

Sunday, December 22, 2024

…aka “Hen” to Hill, her younger brother (by twenty-two minutes).

And if you’re spying for the Ice Duke on behalf of the Crown, you probably know her better as Madame Rose du Bois, mistress to Napoleon’s favorite general.

But to Edgewood she’s always, only Hanna.

There’s no defense for the heart when two kindred spirits find each other. Cold winter nights and warm cognac fuel the flames of passion in The Duke’s Defense, the latest addition to the Dukes in Danger series. Henrianna and Edgewood’s story takes them away from England and into danger across the continent, where both collect secrets that could threaten their last chance at happiness together.

“Why are you scowling at me? What do you see that makes you so serious?” Her smile had changed to concern…for him.

He studied the picture she made for a moment longer, and then, folding her hand to his heart, he bent to softly kiss her lips. When he raised his head, he  looked into her eyes and smiled. “I see you, and I see my future,” he whispered.

Falling in love and living happily ever after are two very different things. Sometimes even the most perfect love is not meant to be…

But sometimes it is.

I hope you enjoy Henrianna and Edgewood’s story.
